And that gut wrenching, out of tune, pre match ‘blue army’ ?!
Surely there’s a way to make it stop.

(not entirely serious) Suggestions for an alternative stadium announcer:
Omid Djalili
An East Anglian version of that bloke at Liverpool (deep and sonorous, but with a Suffolk twang)
June Brown (possibly too late) |  |

Agree, bit weird to do it at all when Hey Jude then immediately gets blasted out but I don't understand how you can get it that wrong.
Don't think the club are particularly enamoured with his performance on the mic this season so may well see a different person doing the job next year (wouldn't be surprised if Dave Vant gets a promotion from his fan zone MC job). |  |

I've stopped watching Life's a pitch because of Murphy. It's a cringe-a-minute. |  |

Actually start a chant or song ourselves rather than talking about what we had for lunch just before kick off (Blue Action aside). |  |

‘Did somebody say norwich…. Booooo’
It’s like listening to your grandparents joke with your kids about not having peas and sweetcorn on plate.

If I’m totally honest, I’d rather talk about your lunch than hear him.
That said, in NSU, it’s impossible to talk due to ear blowing volumes on speaker system | |

Haha! Awful isn't it.
Am I being unreasonable to also be really irritated when he reads out the team and steams ahead of the players appearing on the big screen?
I'm sure he's a lovely guy, but my boy nails it when he calls him "cringe." |  | | |

Going to quite a lot of lower league grounds, I'm surprised how many announcers in the north seem to have (cod?) southern accents, like Radio 1 deejays in the 80s. Not quite Smashy and Nicey, but almost. [Post edited 21 Feb 15:34]

...he reads out who our manager is too.
Just in case he's been dropped.

Most of the things he does are irritating. Even down to small things like when he reads out the subs and keeps switching up whether he says the name or the number first. | |

Rotherham striker "Huggle" going off in the second half was a particular highlight. |  | | |

Oh FFS, I wish I hadn’t read that as had failed to notice it so far.
He really is poor at the job, a classic Partridgian local DJ. |  |

While we’re at it, why don’t they just cut Hey Jude after a couple of choruses and let the crowd sing (like Forest do with Mull of Kintyre). |  | | |

Yep, to be honest whenever I've heard him he comes across as someone who likes the sound of their own voice and he's brought that to this job.
Shame Rob Chandler's done the sensible thing and decided to enjoy the matches as a fan. | |
